This is why I find the whole emacs conversation confusing

You’ll have people who demonstrate their whole set up and interactions and hot keys and shortcuts and everything and then when you say OK well why would you do it like that it all boils down to:

“This extremely precise implementation works for only me and my specific workflow”

I found that it’s almost more useful to think about emacs users showing off their org mode bindings are basically like Warhammer players showing off their painted figurines

You can possibly learn some new setting you can add to your own flow.

My config is loaded with things from posts like these.

That's their value.
